The APS Board of Education is a seven-member group elected to establish policies for the school district. Board members are elected at large and serve four-year terms. The board addresses the concerns of the local community while working within the framework of state and federal laws. This includes approving curricula and instructional materials and adopting the annual budget.
Board candidates run on a non-partisan basis and do not need to be educators.
Aurora Public Schools will hold an informational meeting for community members interested in learning more about the board of education. The session will be held:
